Scalebound demo provides a look at its cooperative gameplay

Microsoft has provided a second look at Platinum Games' upcoming action RPG, Scalebound.

Following Scalebound's debut last year, the demo provides a look into how the title is shaping up after its delay into 2017. The 5-minute trailer showcases the game's J-RPG roots, both through its art style and gameplay mechanics. Packed with four players in the game's cooperative play, the demo shows how the dragons and their riders can take advantage of various attack strategies to defeat larger bosses.

Scalebound releases next year, joining the lineup of games to support the 'Buy Once, Play Anywhere' policy. As a part of this, purchasing the title on either platform unlocks access on both Windows 10 and Xbox One.
